Week 8: Comments and Feedback

  • I have taken quite a few online classes here at OU, so I have gotten a lot of feedback and comments on discussion posts and the like. This class has definitely had some of the best teacher/student comments that I have experienced. Mrs. Gibbs feedback has been great, but I have gotten a lot of good feedback from students on ways to flesh out my posts and helps me focus on areas that I need to work on, especially on my blog posts. In regards to the feedback that I have left, I think that the feedback strategies that we have learned have come in handy throughout the semester.
  • I do feel like I am getting a sense of who people are in the class from their blog postings, not just on their project posts, but their posts within blogger. I was pretty happy with my introduction post and I think that it does give a good sense of who I am in this moment in my life.
  • Looking forward, I think that even though I have been happy with the feedback that I have been able to leave for my fellow students, there is always room for improvement. I hope that as the semester progresses, my feedback becomes just as useful to my peers as their feedback has been for me. In terms of improving my own blog, I would like to flesh out the intro a little bit more and I got some good advice for improving the title.
 
Feedback Cat
  • I scrolled through most of the cat pictures on this blog page but still couldn't help but pick the first one that I saw. For one, the caption rings true. I have made sure to go back and use the feedback from the previous week to help me post for the current week. And secondly, the little kitten is adorable!

    Yeah I definitely agree that Mrs. Gibbs gives great feedback. She's very thoughtful and eager to read and it makes the whole class more enjoyable as a result IMO. I also agree that other students give feedback really well too, maybe it's the guidelines but they've really helped me point out errors and problems in my writing, as well as what I'm strong at. I just wish everyone could take this class and learn more about taking and making valuable feedback!

Introduction to a future who-knows-what

My name is Taylor Blackwell, and this is my introduction post. I am a Religious Studies major in my last semester. One of the coolest things about my major is that it is a unique way of learning about people. I am not religious myself, but religion tends to be the thing that determines how people live their lives. It can determine how people act, dress, talk, who they interact with, how they raise their children (how many children they have), how they spend their money, how they vote, the list goes on and on. So, for me, learning about religion is a different way of learning about people and how they operate. The best class I took last semester was my Capstone class. Our project was to write our own gospel and it was a lot of fun. I took a creative approach to my gospel and it was the first time that I have ever had to write creatively; everything before that was just academic writing so it was a great experience. During most school breaks I don’t do anything very exciting, b...

Week 7 Story: King Yudhisthira's Horse

Image
Horse O' War: King Yudhisthira's Horse leading Arjuna into Battle The story that I am about to tell you is one that has yet to be told in its original context. By now you are well aware of the story of the moon-white horse with a plate of gold strapped to its head. You know, the one that the army of Arjuna followed for a year, conquering rajah after rajah? Well, there are several very important aspects of that story that all but a very few are unaware of.  For starters, it may seem that the horse had very little to do with the many victories that Arjuna experienced, for I am just a simple horse, wandering around the land. That is where you are wrong.  But, it is not your fault as the reader, it is more my fault for keeping such a low profile in this story for so many centuries. Who am I, you might be asking? Well, let me tell you. I am Skanda, the firstborn son of Shiva, and the god of war, and during these particular events told in The Mahabharata I was str...
